Description

Critical Plant Studies in Taiwan presents a historical overview of vegetal ecocriticism in Taiwan.

Divided into 12 chapters, it examines the human-plant entanglements on the island.

Covering a wide spectrum of topics, such as the imperial plant explorations, the military casuarina afforestation, the mangrove conservation movement, the ecofeminist rooftop garden, the Indigenous millet restoration, the underground mycorrhizal network in urban Taipei, etc., it discloses the phyto-politics in the historical context of the vegetal materialist condition of the island.

Intersecting the poetics and politics of plant narratives, it presents the multispecies plantscapes of the island.

The first of its kind, the collection launches the historical and localized critical plant studies in Taiwan.
